back from bkk

Hi folks, the Wide-Eyed Wanderer, that is moi, is back. Sorry to disappoint you, but there is nothing scandalous to report and nothing that left me really wide-eyed. Well, except two of them drags at the cabaret we went.

Unlike the other cabaret show I went some years back, this one was of a much smaller scale. The good thing about this is that we got to sit really close to the stage (something like 3 rows from it) and have a clear view of the performers. The best part is you neither have to pay nor queue to take pictures with them after the show! While some of the performers look so hideous it's laughable, two of the lead performers are absolute knockouts. Watching them left Oh not only wide-eyed and mesmerized but also almost drooling like a puppy. So much so that he rushed to take pictures with both of them after the show, ha!

This is one of them. "She" looks rather like a well-endowed Fann Wong, non? I'm not going to show you the pictures I took with them lest you see my tiko look!

The original intention was to head out to Patpong on the last night for some good decent partying. We had only spent a short indecent while there the night before. But alas, I got knocked out by a bad stomach on the last night. Absolutely bizarre it was, as I've not taken anything that might be unclean, and it was immediately after a massage that the stomach went tumbling. I guess the lady masseur hit the wrong button on my back. Duh.

BKK is alright actually. The attraction is undoubtedly the shopping. I'm still flabbergasted by the fact that a colleague who was a first time visitor opted to forgo all the attractions in order to have more time to shop. For someone like me who can walk the entire Chatuchak market without buying a single thing, this sort of mentality escapes me totally. How she could spend over 12000 baht in half a day is way beyond my imagination too!

Anyway it's back to work again. The TODO list is piling up quickly, but I'm really looking forward to Christmas!
